I know you are all wondering what's a going on with the in-laws...well....it was AWESOME, of course! It me, hello, lol! When I walked through the door I just went straight to charming Grandma. See here's the thing when meeting old people for the first time...always go for the the most loved person in the room, wear a nice vintage dress from the 40s or 50s and make sure all your tattoos are covered. Gets them EVERY TIME!! She told me I was beautiful like a bagillion time...haha THANK YOU!! Once Mom saw how much Grandma loved me she couldn't resist me neither. Giiiiirl me and old people go together like B&W stripes on a sweater, I thought you knew!

My hardest challenge was Dad cause he was doing business online the whole time but once I showed him I'm a guys' girl he loved me too. I had him crackin the FUDGE UP at my jokes, all night!

I was soooo aiming to please, they got this Atheist to go to church with them!!! WTF, YES CHURCH!! It was the LONGEST hour of my lifetime! I practically had a seizure from rolling my eyes so much from all the crap that was flying outta his mouth! But it was sooooo worth it for my family's sake. Joel was extremely proud of me. He looked like he was going to cry when he said we had to go to church, hahaha! I would be scared of my reaction too! So overall I LOOOOVE my in-laws, YAAAAAAY!

I hope everyone had an AWESOME Xmas. I'm super excited for the New Year cause of all the positive changes I've made in my life. I want to keep it going....so no more drama, negativity or people around me who just aren't doing anything with their lives. That stuff can really bring you down! Do you know what it's like to wake up and not have to worry about other people problems?? AH-MAAAZING, I haven't been this happy in a looong time!! Look out 2011, here I come!

good job. i am glad things went smoothly. we make sacrifices for the ones we love, no? but church aside (ha), i understand the difficulties of an interracial relationship. if me and my ex had a helluva time in fucking OAKLAND, i can only imagine what it is like in texas. you are fierce!

"Giiiiirl me and old people go together like B&W stripes on a sweater,"

AHAHA that is just classic! I am so happy that you are happy and that things went smoothly for you, meeting other people's families are always hard. and ugh so is going to church, ive had too many a times had to tag along with friends to those horrid places. you look spectacular girl, and you know it ;D
